0.1 M NaCl and 0.05 M BaC₁₂ solutions are separated by a semipermeable membrane in a container. For this system, choose the correct answer. (AMU 2010)

A.There is no movement of any solution across the
B.Water flows from BaC₁₂ solution towards NaCl✓ Correct
C.Water flows from NaCl solution towards BaC₁₂
D.Osmotic pressure of 0.1 M NaCl is lower than the
Explanation

The concentration of BaC₁₂ solution is lower, thus solvent (water) moves from the BaC₁₂ solution towards NaCl solution, when both the solutions are separated by a semipermeable membrane. Therefore, option (b) is correct.
